Campari CASK TALES Bitter Tequila Barrel Finish 25% vol. 1 litre 

Campari CASK TALES Bitter Tequila Barrels Finish is a limited-edition special release of the world-famous Italian aperitif bitter, with an alcohol content of 25 percent, in a 1-litre bottle. Since 1860, Campari has been renowned for its distinctive blend of herbs, bitter oranges and selected botanicals. With the Cask Tales series, Campari is expanding its classic bitter range with innovative cask-aged variants. 

This edition is finished in No. 2-toasted American oak casks that previously held Espolòn Tequila. This creates a new interpretation of the classic Campari, retaining its characteristic bitterness whilst complementing it with spicy and fresh cask notes. The result is an elegant aperitif with a distinctive and modern profile. Campari CASK TALES Tequila Barrels Finish combines the typical Campari style with the distinctive influences of the former tequila casks. The barrel finish lends the aperitif a delicate spiciness, subtle acidity and added depth, without masking its unmistakable character. This makes this special edition ideal for classic aperitif and cocktail creations and offers an exciting alternative for lovers of premium Italian bitters.
